Potty Training

We are in full potty training mood, we have tried a few times before but gave after the second day cuz Abi just refused to go would scream no and one thing I have read, DON'T PUSH IT so I wouldn't.  On Friday we put on some panties and decided to try again. She had a couple of accidents in the morning but she noticed right away and would let me know and would finish in the potty, so that was good, and I would give her a prize anyway (which this time around was some books that I got at a rummage sale) In the afternoon she  kept her panties dry so yay was so excited for her. Over the weekend we had more accidents so I thought we were not ready, but we pushed on and Monday we had a good day went more in the potty chair and none in her panties yay. We still put her pull ups on at nap time cuz that is when she does her bm. Yesterday and today have been going ever two hours and no accidents. She did have one accident yesterday but she was on her way by her self to the potty and didn't make it on time. I never told her so to go so that was promising. She felt bad, but I kept telling her but you were going on your own. Tomorrow we are going to try and go every 2 1/2 hours. I try not to get to excited, but I sure hope we are on the right path and soon we will be potty trained. Look at this beautiful girl. I am lucky.

Abi starts school.

Abi is delayed in speech, been hard but she started preschool last week. She goes from 9-11 Tues through Friday.  I was asked by a friend how I was taking it, I said pretty good, but then again it was only 2 hours and the first day I stayed for the first hour ran home to change Gus then went back and got her. The second day I had to go and mail a package and run to the store to return something and the third ran to a friends house to give her something talked to her for a while then off to the Grocery store for milk and eggs. So Friday was the only day I was at home and ended up running  5 mins late due to the clock I looked at so that was fixed when Bill got home. Anyway, I am pretty sure that Abi loves school and the second day I took her when she saw her teacher she got excited and ran to the gate to greet her. I am hoping that she continues to grow and love school. I will upload pictures to the computer later and then up to here.

HaPPy 3rd Birthday Princess Abi

Can not believe this little girl turned 3 today. She is such a joy to be around, even when she drives us nuts, we still love having her in our life. Love you princess.

The day we went home.

Showing Abi some love

I've had issues with loading pictures to Abi's blog lately, I finally figured out what I was doing wrong, I know took me long enough but hey better late then never. So here are some pictures. The first is before I left for the wedding the night Gus was born, Abi wanted to go as well but she stayed home, the other of her in same dress is at the hospital in the waiting room the girls had the camera so they were taking pictures. I am going to also post a picture of the two girls who were with  me the night Gus was born.

New Blog

Well now that we have two kids it is only fair that they both be recognized in the blog so I have stated up a new one, still in progress but both my babies will be represented well.

Gustaf William

Gustaf William made his grand entrance on Oct 1st in a big way. I was with some of my closest friends to go to a wedding which we did and at the reception my placenta ruptured and 911 was called and I was off to the best NICU hospitals in tucson and at 10:49 via emergency cecerian we had our little boy. At 6 weeks early he still weighs 5lbs 12.5 oz and almost 18 in. Pictures to come after grandma and grandpa see him.

Pretty Girl

Java really does love Abi, even though most of the time she runs from her, but most of the time she is always the first of our dogs to go up to Abi for some love. I took some pictures last week of Abi for my dad to send to him for his birthday. The one with her in a different outfit was that morning when she was asking for something and was about to whine, She is getting so big hard to believe she is going to be 3 in a couple of months where did the time go.

Yard work

Yard work with Daddy, he was outside the other day cleaning up leaves when Abi wanted to go out she had been watching him, so first she asked for her hat. Next she grabbed her blow dryer and stood by the door. I let her out and she used the blow dryer like daddy used the leaf blower. Then they grabbed their brooms to finish up the job. She was so happy to be a big help. Which she was except when she was going opposite direction with the broom.

Blog Picture Help

Ok nothing to do with Abi, but from time to time I like to click on the next blog button and go through different blogs. Some blogs I have gone through have nice big pictures and I was wondering how you do it. We recently got a canon ESL Rebel T3i. Even with me clicking on large photos they are still small. So please comment me if you have a blog that has large pictures and how you do it. Thank you Marsha
